This 14x20 deckled edge artwork is float mounted in a 18x24 white wood frame. Float mounting “floats” the artwork on a foam board lift, which is then mounted onto a mat backing. The height of the lift creates the floating effect by raising the artwork off the mat backing. My work is inspired by Gerhard Richter, his color choices and unique tools. Being able to manipulate the paint across the entire surface with one or two large squeegees is a revelation to me and makes every painting a challenge and an adventure. Each painting starts with basic color choices that are applied to the surface in a random color field technique. Then I begin blending with the squeegee. As the painting progresses more of the same and/or different colors are added to create vignettes across the surface until I'm satisfied with the results. This technique also provides a great deal of texture which gives each painting a three dimensional feel. I've found that knowing when to stop the painting is as important as any other aspect of the process. Sometimes I have to walk away for a few moments then come back to get a fresh perspective.

I was born in Honolulu, Hawaii in 1949. Lived most of my life in the San Francisco East Bay Area(Alamo/Danville). I moved to Southern California in 2001 and then Santa Barbara in 2018, I've been painting since 2010 when I discovered a Sam Francis painting at a gallery. It inspired me to try my hand at abstract painting. I was excited by the colors he used and the way he applied the acrylic paint.
